October 11, 2014 YAY! The Season of our Rejoicing! Feast of
Tabernacles 2014- Hallelu-YAH!
Shabbat Shalom
Loved One! (This study is
attached and available at the website below)
This study is
attached for ease of print and study format- YHWH is restoring all things;
that includes us who were once DRY BONES! All
who KNOW HIM and call on His name will be delivered- HalleluYAH!
Why
are we on a different schedule of the Torah Cycle than the mainstream and the
Orthodox? For me it is about restoration of all things- explanation continued
at end of this week’s study-
This
is the week of The
Feast of Tabernacles starting this evening Friday October 11th- If you are “keeping
the feast” at a different time- that is certainly fine--we are not back
in Jerusalem and “KEEPING THE FEASTS” we are only still scattered and
practicing obedience best we can. Just make the effort of obedience—Yahweh loves
that! Here’s why this year’s obedience is more than important:
Isaiah 59:19 So shall they fear the name of Yahweh (Yahuwah- Elohim-God) from the west, and
his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a
flood, the Spirit of Yahweh shall lift up a standard against him.
Remember what I shared that I believe the
great and mighty Elohim is the flood so consider moving the punctuation mark-
so it will read like this---when the enemy
comes in, like a flood the Spirit of Yahweh will raise a standard against him!
Our Deliverer is coming- our Deliverer is standing by! I love this old song…

(Be blessed and Listen for 5 minutes!)
Recently I was in Arlington, Texas at a bank and to
my surprise; my old friend Gilbert turned around and said hello- divine
appointment as he was on his way to do research in Israel---reminded me of him
turning around in worship way back in 2000 in Jerusalem in the American Colony
and saying to me (He was as surprised to see me as I him) “What are you doing
here?” He and his precious wife hold a Feast of Tabernacles every year in
Arlington, Tx.
Every year during the Fall Feasts I remember him
(Gilbert) and the T shirt he had made; on the front side it exclaimed “KEEP THE FEASTS” whereas on the back
it gave reason—Or Be A Feast! (Revelation
19:17)
And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice,
saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, come and gather
yourselves together unto the supper of the great Elohim Yahweh; (Revelation 19:18)
That you may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the
flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and
the flesh of all men, both free and
bond, both small and great. It is of
great importance that we learn how important Yahweh considers our humbling
ourselves to obey Him really is!
One of the first things we learn from the Feast of
Tabernacles is that in camping- PLANNING
AHEAD IS EVERYTHING! The BRIDE will really make herself ready! This is such
a beautiful picture of our times in the wilderness ahead of us:
(Revelation 12:6) And
the woman fled into the wilderness,
where she hath a place prepared of Yahweh that they should feed her there a
thousand two hundred and threescore days. (Revelation 12:7)
And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the
dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, (Revelation
12:8) and prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in
heaven. (Revelation 12:9) And the great dragon was cast out, that old
serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceives the whole world: he was
cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. (Revelation 12:10)
And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, now is come salvation, and
strength, and the Kingdom of Yahweh, and the power of Messiah Yahshua: for the
accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our Elohim
Yahweh day and night.
(Revelation 12:11) And
they (us) overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and
by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.
(Revelation 12:12) Therefore rejoice ye
heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabitants of the earth and of
the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he
knows that he has but a short time. (Revelation 12:13) And when the dragon saw that he was cast unto
the earth, he persecuted the woman which brought forth the man child. (Revelation
12:14) And to the woman were
given two wings of a great eagle that she might fly into the wilderness, into
her place, where she is nourished for a time, and
times, and half a time from the face of the serpent.
Our understanding for our obedience of
Keeping His commanded Feasts (These have
erroneously been called “Jewish” Feasts- but they are Biblically described as
Feasts of Yahweh; in caps THE LORD) as such; should include such an
understanding as the absolute wrath of Yah on those who say they love Him but
by actions say they “hate” Him. Esau was hated by Yahweh for his lack of
obedience to His ways and his inability or total lack of concern to repent. Our
Creator is serious and upon His first arrival was the lamb of Yahweh sacrifice-
now He is returning as a KING and He will finish the remaining part of the
Scripture He quoted in Isaiah 61: (He had
stopped in mid-sentence which I show in RED- because the first time Messiah
came He was not come to offer vengeance yet)
(Isa 61:1) The Spirit of the Master יהוה is
upon me, because יהוה has anointed me to
bring good news to the meek. He has sent me to bind up the broken-hearted, to
proclaim release to the captives, and the opening of the prison to those who
are bound, (Isa 61:2) to proclaim the acceptable year of יהוה, and
the day of vengeance of our Elohim, to comfort all who mourn, (Isa 61:3) to appoint unto those who mourn in Tsiyon:
to give them embellishment for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment
of praise for the spirit of heaviness. And they shall be called trees of
righteousness, a planting of יהוה, to be adorned.
The GOOD NEWS is that we will
soon all be back in Jerusalem KEEPING THE FEAST OF TABERNACLES! Hehe so it is
easy to “chill” and draw near to Him as we learn to TRUST AND OBEY!
Below we’ll keep this Feast of Tabernacles during the Millennium reign of
Yahshua (Jesus) loved one, so I expect that is a good enough reason for Truth
Searchers like us to start learning obedience in “Keeping the Feasts!” Remember
the Hebrew idiom “The Day that no man knows the day or the hour!” (Feast
of Trumpets) then 15 days later is the Feast of Tabernacles- Season of our
Joy!
(Zechariah 14:16) And
it shall be that all who are left from all the gentiles which came up against
Yerushalayim, shall go up from year to year to bow themselves to the Sovereign,
יהוה of hosts,
and to
observe the Festival of Booths (Tabernacles/Sukkot). (Zechariah 14:17)
And it shall be, that if anyone of the clans of the earth does not come
up to Yerushalayim to bow himself to the Sovereign (King), יהוה of hosts, on them
there is to be no rain.
How do we know
when the Biblical year starts and when we are to keep His Biblically prescribed
Feast dates loved one? YHWH put the planets and stars in their courses for
seasons days and years. The moon circles the Earth every 29.54 days so we can
only have a 29 day month or a 30 day month- never a 28 or 31 day month like
Pope Gregory determined. So YHWH is in control of what time it is in His
universe! The Biblical NEW YEAR started at sundown Monday April 4! Here is how we determine the real start of the year! (Exodus 12:1)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh and to Aharon in the land
of Mitsrayim, saying, Exodus 12:2) “This month is the beginning of months
for you; it is the first month of the year for you. (Just before Passover)
Why is that of any importance to
you and me living today? Because many of the body of believers have been
blinded by the enemy of our souls and still follow vain
traditions which are mostly manmade subtractions, additions and traditions of
“Churchianity” handed down from the
anything but a “Holy” Roman Empire ruler Constantine; who was a sun god worshiper and enforced these “manmade
doctrines” with the penalty of death for rejection. Please understand we should
know when the year starts so we can observe and do His commanded Holy Days
(Holidays) and not do vain observations that He considers abominations. Many
Christians honor all the TRADITIONAL
holidays such as Christmas, Easter, Lent and never consider their pagan roots
which were orchestrated by Rome. Some know that the day of the sun (Sun-day) was rooted from sun god
worship and Easter was the pagan fertility goddess, where the Easter Priests (Not Christians or follower of Messiah) -
would impregnate the virgins on the sunrise service and sacrifice the 3 month
old babies from the prior years' sunrise service, dipping the eggs
of Easter into the freshly sacrificed babies blood and declare- HAPPY
EASTER EVERYONE! Have a prosperous and fertile year! This was their form of Happy New Year! Lent was the 40 days of fasting and weeping
for Tamuz followed by killing the pig that killed Tammuz (on a hunting expedition) and having that for Easter ham- goodness-
Loved Ones-think maybe these traditions are possibly an abomination to our
Creator? He
taught us to NOT LEARN the ways of the heathen and say we are worshiping Him! (Jeremiah 10:2)
Thus said יהוה, “Do not
learn the way of the gentiles, 1
and do not be awed by the signs of the heavens, for the gentiles are awed by
them.2 Footnotes:
1 Leviticus. 18:3, Dt. 12:30 & 18:9, Ezekiel 11:12 & 20:32,
Ephesians 4:17, 1 Peter 4:3. 2 Dt. 4:19 & 17:3. He also COMMANDED US: (Deuteronomy 4:2)
“Do not add to the Word which I command you,
and do not subtract
from it 1, so as to guard the commands of יהוה your Elohim which I am commanding you. Footnote:
1 See also 12:32, Prov. 30:6, Revelation. 22:18-19. Do you and I suppose he has changed His mind
about that; so we think it okay to ADD these
manmade traditions as holy days and festivals (holidays)? And SUBTRACT
His Feasts and festivals?
Do "we" worship in
VAIN? Maybe we should
consider doing only what He says and not what tradition allows-THESE ARE THE
DAYS OF REPENTANCE- SEEK A FEAST SITE (Internet) AND ATTEND
LOVED ONE- YOU WILL BE BLESSED BY KEEPING THIS APPOINTMENT (MOEDIM) WITH OUR
CREATOR!
Really-
Worship in VAIN? Goodness –
maybe we should really reconsider Loved Ones- another Scripture comes to
mind- “Come out of her my people or partake in her plagues!” Loved Ones,
should we worship Him the way He says or obey men and our traditions? Is
obedience to the Word made flesh that dwelled among us really important? Is our own judgment possibly only a heartbeat
away? Do we
really want to nullify all the promises received from obedience- given in the
Word? We should take the time to consider the word “VAIN”.
Matthew 15:3 He
answering, said to them, “Why do you
also transgress the command of Elohim1 because of your tradition?
Footnote: 1See Matthew. 5:20. Matthew 15:4 “For Elohim has
commanded, saying, ‘Respect your father and your mother,’ and, ‘He who curses
father or mother, let him be put to death.’ Matthew 15:5 “But you say,
‘Whoever says to his father or mother, “Whatever profit you might have received
from me has been dedicated,” Matthew 15:6 is certainly released from respecting his father or mother.’ So
you have nullified the command of
Elohim by your tradition. Matthew 15:7 “Hypocrites!
Yeshayahu rightly prophesied about you, saying, Matthew
15:8 ‘This people draw near to me with their
mouth, and respect me with their lips, but their heart is far from Me. Matthew 15:9 ‘But in vain do they worship me, teaching
as my doctrines- the commands of men.’ ”1 Footnote: 1Isa.
29:13, Mk. 7:7, 2 Kings 17:19.
Obedience is LOVE: (John 14:10) “Do you
not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in me? The words that I
speak to you I do not speak from myself. But the Father who stays in me does
His works. (John 14:11) “Believe Me that I am
in the Father and the Father in me, otherwise believe me because of the works
themselves. (John 14:12) “Truly, truly, I say
to you, he who believes in me, the works that I do he shall do also. And
greater works than these he shall do, because I go to My Father. (John 14:13) “Whatever you ask in my name, that I shall do, in order that
the Father might be esteemed in the Son. (John
14:14)
“If you ask whatever in my Name, I shall do it. (John 14:15) “If you love me,
you shall guard (keep) my commands.1 Footnote: 1See
Ex. 20:6, vv. 21&23, 1 John 5:2-3, 2 John v. 6. (John 14:16) “And I shall ask the Father, and He shall give you another
Helper, to stay with you forever – (John 14:17)
the Spirit of the Truth, whom the world is unable to
receive, because it does not see Him or know Him. But you know Him, for He
stays with you and shall be in you. (John
14:18) “I
shall not leave you orphans – I am coming to you. (John 14:19) “Yet a little while, and the world no longer
sees me, but you shall see me, because I live, and you shall live. (John 14:20) “In that day you shall know that I am in my Father and you in
me, and I in you. (John 14:21) “He who possesses my commands and guards (keeps) them; it is he who loves me. And he who loves me shall be loved by my Father, and I
shall love him and manifest myself to him.”
Why is this even important to us today? Because if
we cannot determine when the year starts we cannot observe His commands out of
loving obedience! Then we’d miss the Feast of our Rejoicing- hehe “Missing”
would be tragic because it is WONDERFUL!
Do we realize
that IN THE BEGINNING Yahshua (Jesus) was the word and is the word
even at Mt Sinai? Malachi 4 and Hebrews 13:8 testifies that He changes not and
is the same yesterday, today and forever- what part of “forever” is so
difficult for us to understand? The enemy has planted many tares and blinded
many of us into thinking our religious traditions are acceptable to our King!
However; He claims we are worshipping Him in VAIN! Please let us not use the
excuse that those words have passed away because Yahshua addressed that thought
beforehand and leaves us no excuse when we stand in His presence; (Matthew 5:17)
Think not that I am come to destroy the law, (Torah- Instructions) or the prophets:
I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (Matthew
5:18) For
verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth pass, one jot or one tittle
shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be fulfilled. (Matthew 5:19)
Whosoever therefore shall break one of these
least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the
kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be
called great in the kingdom of heaven. So; is it ALL fulfilled? What is fulfilled were the Spring Feasts of YHWH; He
was and is the Passover Lamb, He is the High Priest who had to be in
seclusion until the First Fruits Offering and could not be touched
(“Don’t touch me Mary- I have not yet ascended to the Father”) then the graves
opened and many were seen around Jerusalem risen from the dead as He was the
first of many of the First Fruits Offering; then on Shavuot (we now call
Pentecost) He poured out His Spirit that His commands would no longer be
impossible (burdensome) to keep.
These were and are the Spring Feasts he and we start our year with- they are
the shadow picture of things to come. The Fall Feasts have not yet been fulfilled-
we are finally; during our generation, approaching the Feast of Trumpets
and at the LAST TRUMPET, the dead in Messiah rise first; then 10 days later we
have the DAY OF ATONEMENT or some of us call Judgment Day; then 5 days
later we have The Feast of Tabernacles or Sukkoth when we tabernacle or
dwell with Him forever; then on the eighth day of this Feast we have the LAST
GREAT DAY or the WEDDING FEAST OF THE LAMB. Once again; these Fall Feasts are not yet fulfilled. So
what does Yahshua say about this; are there still a heaven and an earth? If
there is a heaven and earth still we are commanded to: (Matthew 5:17) think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfill. (Matthew 5:18)
For verily I say unto you, till heaven and earth
pass, one jot or one tittle shall in no wise pass from the law, till all be
fulfilled. (Matthew 5:19) Whosoever therefore
shall break one of these least commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall
be called the least in the kingdom of heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach
them, the same
shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.
Remember also LOVED
ONES- WE FEAR NOT! We fast and repent
getting rid of our unbelief and replacing it with TRUSTING HIM! (Psalms 20:5) We sing of your deliverance, and
in the Name of our Elohim we set up a banner! יהוה (YHWH) does fill
all your requests! (Psalms 20:6) Now I know that יהוה (YHWH) shall save
(deliver) His Anointed; He answers
him from His set-apart heavens with the saving might of His right hand. (Psalms 20:7) Some trust
in chariots, and some in horses, but we remember (trust in) the Name of יהוה (YHWH) our Elohim.
(Psalms 20:8)
They, they have bowed down and fallen; But we have risen and are
established. (Psalms 20:9) Save us (YHWH)
יהוה! Let the Sovereign answer us in the day
we call.
Here are this week’s Torah Scriptures: SUKKOT “Feast of Tabernacles!”
Leviticus
22:26-23;44; Numbers 29:12-16; Zechariah 14:1-21; Revelation 21:1-7
(Leviticus 22:1) And
יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 22:2) “Speak to Aharon and his sons, that
they separate themselves from the set-apart offerings of the children of
Yisra’ĕl, and that they do not profane my set-apart Name in what they set apart
to Me. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 22:3)
“Say to them, ‘any man of all your offspring throughout your generations
who draws near the set-apart Offerings which the children of Yisra’ĕl set apart
to יהוה, while he has uncleanness upon him, that
being shall be cut off from before Me. I am יהוה.
(Leviticus 22:4) ‘Any man of the offspring of Aharon, who is a
leper or has a discharge, does not eat the set-apart offerings until he
is clean. And whoever touches what is rendered unclean by a corpse, or a man
who has had an emission of semen, (Leviticus 22:5)
or a man who touches any creeping creature by which he would be made unclean,
or any being by whom he would become unclean, even any of his uncleanness; (Leviticus 22:6) the being who has touched it shall
be unclean until evening, and does not eat the set-apart offerings, but
shall bathe his body in water. (Leviticus 22:7) ‘And when the sun goes down he shall be
clean, and afterward eat the set-apart offerings, because it is his
food. (Leviticus 22:8) ‘He does not eat that which dies or is torn by
beasts, becoming unclean by it. I am יהוה.
(Leviticus 22:9) ‘And they shall guard My Charge, lest they
bear sin for it and die thereby, when they profane it. I יהוה
set them apart. (Leviticus 22:10) ‘And no stranger eats the set-apart offering.
A sojourner with the priest, or a hired servant, does not eat the set-apart offering.
(Leviticus 22:11) ‘But when the priest buys a being with his
money, he does eat of it. And one who is born in his house does eat his food. (Leviticus 22:12)
‘And when a priest’s daughter is married to a stranger, she does not eat
of the set-apart offerings. (Leviticus 22:13) ‘But when a priest’s daughter is a widow or
put away, and has no child, and has returned to her father’s house as in her
youth, she does eat her father’s food, but no stranger eats of it. (Leviticus 22:14)
‘And when a man eats the set-apart offering by mistake, then he shall
give a set-apart offering to the priest, and add one-fifth to it. (Leviticus 22:15)
‘And let the priests not profane the set-apart offerings of the
children of Yisra’ĕl, which they lift up to יהוה,
(Leviticus 22:16) or allow them to bear the
crookedness of trespass when they eat their set-apart offerings. I am יהוה,
who sets them apart.’ ” (Leviticus 22:17) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 22:18) “Speak to Aharon and his sons, and to all the
children of Yisra’ĕl, and say to them, ‘Any man of the house of Yisra’ĕl, or of
the strangers in Yisra’ĕl, who brings his offering for any of his vows or for
any of his voluntary offerings, which they bring to יהוה
as a burnt offering, (Leviticus 22:19) for your acceptance, is a male, a perfect one
from the cattle, from the sheep, or from the goats. (Leviticus
22:20) ‘Whatever has a defect,
you do not bring, for it is not acceptable for you. (Leviticus
22:21) ‘And when a man brings a
peace offering to יהוה, to complete a vow,
or a voluntary offering from the cattle or the sheep, it is to be perfect to be
accepted, let there be no defect in it. (Leviticus
22:22) ‘Those blind or broken or
having a cut, or have an ulcer or eczema or scabs, you do not bring to יהוה, nor make an offering by fire of them on
the altar to יהוה. (Leviticus 22:23)
‘As for a bull or a lamb that has any limb deformed or dwarfed you do
prepare as a voluntary offering, but for a vow it is not accepted. (Leviticus 22:24)
‘Do not bring to יהוה what is bruised or
crushed, or torn or cut, nor do it in your land. (Leviticus
22:25) ‘And from a son of a
stranger’s hand you do not bring any of these as the bread of your Elohim, for
their corruption is in them, and defects are in them, they are not acceptable
for you.’ ” (Leviticus 22:26) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 22:27) “When a bull or a sheep or a goat
is born, it shall be seven days with its mother. And from the eighth day and
thereafter it is acceptable as an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Leviticus 22:28) “But do not slaughter a cow or a sheep and
its young on the same day. (Leviticus 22:29) “And when you bring a slaughtering of
thanksgiving to יהוה, bring it for your
acceptance. (Leviticus 22:30) “It is eaten that same day; leave none of it
till morning. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 22:31)
“And you shall guard my commands and do them. I am יהוה. (Leviticus 22:32) “And do not profane my set-apart Name, and I
shall be set-apart among the children of Yisra’ĕl. I am יהוה,
who sets you apart, (Leviticus 22:33) who
brought you out of the land of Mitsrayim, to be your Elohim. I am יהוה.”
FEASTS- MOEDIM- Appointments- rehearsals- shadows
of good things to come!
(Leviticus 23:1) And
יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:2) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
and say to them, ‘the appointed times of יהוה, which you are to proclaim as set-apart
gatherings, my appointed times, are these: (Leviticus
23:3) ‘Six days work is done, but the seventh day is a Sabbath of rest, a set-apart gathering.
You do no work; it is a Sabbath to יהוה
in all your dwellings. (Leviticus 23:4) ‘These are the appointed times of יהוה, set-apart gatherings which you are to
proclaim at their appointed times. (Leviticus 23:5) ‘In the first month, on the fourteenth day of
the month, between the evenings, is the Passover
to יהוה.
(Leviticus 23:6) ‘And on the fifteenth day of this month is
the Festival of Unleavened Bread to יהוה – seven days you eat
unleavened bread. (Leviticus 23:7) ‘On the first day you have a set-apart
gathering, you do no servile work. (Leviticus 23:8) ‘And you shall bring an offering made by fire
to יהוה for seven days. On the seventh day is a
set-apart gathering, you do no servile work.’ ” (Leviticus
23:9) and יהוה spoke to Mosheh,
saying, (Leviticus 23:10) “Speak to the
children of Yisra’ĕl, and you shall say to them, ‘When you come into the land
which I give you, and shall reap its harvest, then you shall bring a sheaf of
the first-fruits of your harvest to the
priest. (Leviticus 23:11) ‘And he shall wave the sheaf before יהוה, for your acceptance. On the morrow after
the Sabbath the priest waves it. (Leviticus 23:12) ‘And on that day when you wave the sheaf, you
shall prepare a male lamb a year old, a perfect one, as a burnt offering to יהוה, (Leviticus
23:13) and its grain offering: two-tenths of an ĕphah of fine flour
mixed with oil, an offering made by fire to יהוה,
a sweet fragrance, and its drink offering: one-fourth of a hin of wine. (Leviticus 23:14)
‘And you do not eat bread or roasted grain or fresh grain until the same
day that you have brought an offering to your Elohim – a law forever throughout your
generations in all your dwellings. (Leviticus 23:15)
‘And from the morrow after the Sabbath, from the day that you brought
the sheaf of the wave offering, you shall count for yourselves: seven completed
Sabbaths. (Leviticus 23:16) ‘Until the morrow after the seventh Sabbath
you count fifty days, then you shall bring a new grain offering to יהוה. (Leviticus
23:17) ‘Bring from your dwellings
for a wave offering two loaves of bread, of two-tenths of an ĕphah of
fine flour they are, baked with leaven, first-fruits to יהוה.
(Leviticus 23:18) ‘And besides the bread, you shall bring seven
lambs a year old, perfect ones, and one young bull and two rams. They are a
burnt offering to יהוה, with their grain
offering and their drink offerings, an offering made by fire for a sweet
fragrance to יהוה. (Leviticus 23:19)
‘And you shall offer one male goat as a sin offering, and two male lambs
a year old, as a peace offering. (Leviticus 23:20) ‘And the priest shall wave them, besides the
bread of the first-fruits, as a wave offering before יהוה,
besides the two lambs. They are set-apart to יהוה
for the priest. (Leviticus 23:21) ‘And on this same day you shall proclaim a
set-apart gathering for yourselves, you do no servile work on it – a law
forever in all your dwellings throughout your generations. (Leviticus 23:22)
‘And when you reap the harvest of your land do not completely reap the
corners of your field when you reap, and do not gather any gleaning from your
harvest. Leave them for the poor and for the stranger. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ” (Leviticus 23:23)
And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:24) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
saying, ‘In the seventh month, on the first day of the month, you have a rest,
a remembrance of blowing of trumpets, a set-apart
gathering. (Leviticus 23:25) ‘You do no servile work, and you shall bring
an offering made by fire to יהוה.’ ” (Leviticus 23:26) And יהוה
spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:27) “On the tenth day of this seventh month is
the Day
of Atonement. It shall be a set-apart gathering for you. And you
shall afflict your beings, and shall bring an offering made by fire to יהוה. (Leviticus
23:28) “And you do no work on
that same day, for it is the Day of Atonement, to make atonement for you before
יהוה your Elohim. (Leviticus
23:29) “For any being who is not
afflicted on that same day, he shall be cut off from his people. (Leviticus 23:30)
“And any being who does any work on that same day, that being I shall
destroy from the midst of his people. (Leviticus
23:31) “You do no work – a law
forever throughout your generations in all your dwellings. (Leviticus 23:32)
‘It is a Sabbath of rest to you, and you shall afflict your beings. On
the ninth day of the month at evening, from evening to evening, you observe
your Sabbath.”
Sukkot- Tabernacles- Moedim (Appointments)
(Leviticus 23:33) And יהוה spoke to Mosheh, saying, (Leviticus 23:34) “Speak to the children of Yisra’ĕl,
saying, ‘On the fifteenth day of this seventh month is the Festival of
Booths for seven days to יהוה. (Leviticus
23:35) ‘On the first day is a
set-apart gathering, you do no servile work. (Leviticus
23:36) ‘For seven days you bring
an offering made by fire to יהוה. On the eighth day
there shall be a set-apart gathering for you, and you shall bring an offering
made by fire to יהוה. It is a closing
festival, you do no servile work. (Leviticus 23:37) ‘These are the appointed times of יהוה which you proclaim as set-apart
gatherings, to bring an offering made by fire to יהוה,
a burnt offering and a grain offering, a slaughtering and drink offerings, as
commanded for every day – (Leviticus 23:38) besides
the Sabbaths of יהוה, and besides your
gifts, and besides all your vows, and besides all your voluntary offerings
which you give to יהוה. (Leviticus 23:39)
‘On
the fifteenth day of the seventh month, when you gather in the fruit of the
land, observe the festival of יהוה for seven days. On the first day is a
rest, and on the eighth day a rest. (Leviticus
23:40) ‘And you shall take for
yourselves on the first day the fruit of good trees, branches of palm trees,
twigs of leafy trees, and willows of the stream, and shall rejoice before יהוה your Elohim for seven days. (Leviticus 23:41)
‘And you shall observe it as a festival to יהוה
for seven days in the year – a law forever in your generations. Observe it in
the seventh month. (Leviticus 23:42) ‘Dwell
in booths for seven days; all who are native Yisra’ĕlites dwell in booths, (Leviticus 23:43) so that your generations know that
I made the children of Yisra’ĕl dwell in booths when I brought them out of the
land of Mitsrayim. I am יהוה your Elohim.’ ” (Leviticus 23:44) Thus did Mosheh speak of the
appointed times of יהוה to the children of
Yisra’ĕl. (Numbers 29:12)
‘And on the fifteenth day of the seventh month you have a set-apart
gathering, you do no servile work. And you shall observe a festival to יהוה seven days, (Numbers 29:13) and you shall bring near a burnt offering, an
offering made by fire, a sweet fragrance to יהוה:
thirteen young bulls, two rams, fourteen lambs a year old, perfect ones they
are, (Numbers 29:14) and their grain offering: fine flour mixed
with oil, three-tenths of an ĕphah for each of the thirteen bulls,
two-tenths for each of the two rams, (Numbers 29:15) and one-tenth for each of the fourteen lambs,
(Numbers 29:16)
and one male goat as a sin offering, besides the continual burnt
offering, its grain offering, and its drink offering.
We
should not force our way into living in Israel in my opinion…He will deliver us
to there when He is ready. We patiently trust and wait on Him! It will
certainly be bad worldwide and especially in the USA but we need to also realize
that current whoring state of Zion run by the Rothschild family of One World
Order will also be cut off and cleansed before Yahshua’s return! Yikes! 2/3 are
cut off in the land of Israel and 1/3 will be brought through the fire as we too
are refined in fire Loved One! These are the similar numbers of the Great
Tribulation in the last 42 months called Jacob’s Trouble- (Not the Jews only Trouble-
all of the Commonwealth of Israel who are grafted in by believing on Yahshua
and heirs according to the promise of Abraham!)
(Zechariah 14:1)
See, a day shall come for יהוה, and your
spoil shall be divided in your midst. (Zechariah 14:2) And I shall gather all the gentiles to battle
against Yerushalayim 1. And the city shall be taken, the houses plundered, and
the women ravished. Half of the city shall go into exile, but the remnant of
the people shall not be cut off from the city. Footnote: 1 Joel 3:2, Zeph. 3:8, Revelation.
16:14. (Zechariah 14:3) And יהוה
shall go forth, and He shall fight against those gentiles, as He fights in the
day of battle. (Zechariah 14:4) And in that day His feet shall stand upon the
Mount of Olives, which faces Yerushalayim on the east. And the Mount of Olives
shall be split in two, from east to west, a very great valley, and half of the
mountain shall move toward the north and half of it toward the south. (Zechariah 14:5)
And you shall flee to the valley of My Mountain – for the valley of the
mountains reaches to Atsal. And you shall flee as you fled from the earthquake
in the days of Uzziyah sovereign of Yehuḏah. יהוה
my Elohim shall come – all the set-apart ones with you. (Zechariah 14:6) And in
that day it shall be: there is no light, it is dark. (Zechariah
14:7) And it shall be one day
which is known to יהוה, neither day nor
night, but at evening time there shall be light. (Zechariah
14:8) And in that day it shall be
that living waters flow from Yerushalayim 1,
half of them toward the eastern sea and half of them toward the western sea, in
summer as well as in winter. Footnote: 1 Revelation.
22:1-2. (Zechariah 14:9) And יהוה
shall be Sovereign over all the earth 1.
In that day there shall be one יהוה, and His Name one. Footnote: 1 Isaiah 24:23, Dan. 2:44, Revelation.
11:15. (Zechariah 14:10) All the land shall be changed into a desert
plain from Geḇa to Rimmon south of Yerushalayim, and she shall be raised up
and inhabited in her place from Binyamin’s Gate to the place of the First Gate
and the Corner Gate, and from the Tower of Ḥanan’ĕl to the winepresess of the
sovereign. (Zechariah 14:11) And they shall dwell in her, and there shall
be no more utter destruction 1, but
Yerushalayim shall be safely inhabited. Footnote: 1 Mal.
4:6. (Zechariah 14:12) And this is the plague with which יהוה plagues all the people who fought against
Yerushalayim: their flesh shall decay while they stand on their feet, and their
eyes decay in their sockets, and their tongues decay in their mouths. (Zechariah 14:13)
And it shall be in that day that a great confusion from יהוה is among them, and every one of them shall seize the hand of
his neighbor, and his hand rise up against his neighbor’s hand. (Zechariah 14:14)
And Yehuḏah shall fight at Yerushalayim as well. And the wealth of all
the gentiles round about shall be gathered together: gold, and silver, and
garments in great quantities. (Zechariah 14:15) So also is the plague on the horse and the
mule, on the camel and the donkey, and on all the cattle that are in those
camps – as this plague. (Zechariah 14:16) And it shall be that all who are left from
all the gentiles which came up against Yerushalayim, shall go up from year to
year to bow themselves to the Sovereign, יהוה
of hosts, and to observe the Festival of Booths. (Zechariah 14:17)
And it shall be that if anyone of the clans of the earth does not come
up to Yerushalayim to bow himself to the Sovereign, יהוה
of hosts, on them there is to be no rain. (Zechariah
14:18) And if the clan of
Mitsrayim does not come up and enter in, then there is no rain. On them
is the plague with which יהוה plagues the gentiles
who do not come up to observe the Festival of Booths. (Zechariah
14:19) This
is the punishment of Mitsrayim and the punishment of all the gentiles that do
not come up to observe the Festival of Booths. (Zechariah
14:20) In that day “SET-APART TO יהוה” shall be engraved on the bells of the
horses. And the pots in the House of יהוה
shall be like the bowls before the altar. (Zechariah
14:21) And every pot in
Yerushalayim and Yehuḏah shall be set-apart to יהוה
of hosts. And all those who slaughter shall come and take them and cook in
them. And there shall no longer be a merchant in the House of יהוה of hosts, in that day.
If there
were only 6 billion- (More likely now over 7 billion) CONSIDER- ¼ cut off
first- that is minus 1.5 billion, that leaves 4.5 billion, then 1/3 are cut off
– that is another minus of 1.5 billion- that leaves 3 billion of us; YIKES that
is at least ½ the population being cut off!
Shouldn’t
we use this time Loved One to draw near to YHWH? We fear NOT! Hallelu-Yah!
Let’s
look- we start with the fourth seal for ¼: (Revelation 6:7) and when
He opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature
saying, “Come and see.” (Revelation 6:8) And I looked and saw a pale horse. And he who
sat on it had the name Death, and the grave followed with him. And authority
was given to them over a fourth of the earth, to
kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and by the beasts of the
earth. Here’s the next 1/3: (Revelation
9:14) saying to the sixth messenger who had the trumpet, “Release the
four messengers, those having been bound at the great river Euphrates.” (Revelation 9:15)
And the four messengers, those having been prepared for the hour and day
and month and year, were released to kill a
third of mankind.
After the 1000 year Millennium (The
Sabbath Day Rest) Where Yahshua “Tabernacles” with us- then we get a New Heaven and a
New Earth! Hallelu-Yah!
(Revelation 21:1) And
I saw a renewed heaven and a renewed
earth, for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away, and the
sea is no more. (Revelation 21:2) And I, Yoḥanan,
saw the set-apart city, renewed Yerushalayim, coming down out of the heaven
from Elohim, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. (Revelation 21:3)
And I heard a loud voice from the heaven saying, “See, the Booth of
Elohim is with men, and He shall dwell with them, and they shall be His people,
and Elohim Himself shall be with them and be their Elohim. (Revelation 21:4)
“And Elohim shall wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there shall
be no more death, nor mourning, nor crying. And there shall be no more pain,
for the former matters have passed away.” (Revelation
21:5) And He who was sitting on
the throne said, “See, I make all matters new.” And He said to me,
“Write, for these words are true and trustworthy.” (Revelation
21:6) And He said to me, “It is
done! I am the ‘Aleph’ and the ‘Taw’, the Beginning and the End. To the one who
thirsts I shall give of the fountain of the water of life without payment. (Revelation 21:7)
“The one who overcomes shall inherit all this, and I shall be his
Elohim and he shall be my son.
I do hope you
are participating with Loved Ones- loved one; in keeping the Feast of
Tabernacles- wherever you are- thank you for your prayers for Billie and me-
you KNOW you are much loved! Hallelu-Yah! May YHWH bless you, provide for you,
shield and protect you- in the Season of Our Rejoicing! You are really much
loved. Remember 400 times in the KJV the word “fear” is used. 331 of those are
FEAR NOT! That leaves 69 “fears” left- and most of those pertain to FEAR YHWH!
(Who alone can cast you into hell’s flames for eternity) So FEAR NOT! Don’t
forget the attachments- you really want to understand about the plagues (Such
as Ebola) being unleashed on an unsuspecting generation of believers. The CDC (Center
of Disease Control) has put out what appears to be false information about it—such
as it is not airborne, it does not infect or even transferable until you have
symptoms etc.—these are apparently planned UNTRUTHS! Sadly, the US Gov’t has
the patent on Ebola which has the ability to morph and change rapidly—leaving it
impossible to have a vaccine…ALSO THE INFO ABOUT Sukkot in Corsicana Texas—come
as much as you can- we expect an outpouring of the Ruach to counter the
wickedness hasatan is releasing now…
Shalom to your
home- uhhh- Sukkah/Tent- Loved One!

Continued
explanation of 2012-13 Torah Cycle restart at beginning of months… It is about YHWH restoring all things which
sometimes means we are walking alone. I start over annually when YHWH’s year
starts over; this is not to say that I am correct and others are wrong, I just
happen to believe we will never challenge our older brother Judah by following
his traditions. I expect Judah will be moved by our obedience to His Torah
(Words of Scripture) and seeing YHWH’s signs and wonders following our
obedience- Does the statement above mean we are not to grab
the tzitzit of Yehuda and take hold and learn from them? Of course not, we absolutely should learn of them and from
them- just not ingest and keep that which is traditions that go against His
words! Especially since we are the ten
(Ten scattered northern tribes scattered for Easter and sun god day worship
which parallels closely as a pig slop eating prodigal brother)
